Fair enough. Thanks for the explanation. I drive an Audi EV, and the new software update has been much better about those issues. I'm hoping that the software in the 718EV is minimal.

Bolt = $30K 4 door, M3 4 door = $40K. What's the 2 door Porsche gonna cost smarty pants?

Smarty pants? LOL

You are most welcome! I failed to mention that I have owned two Taycan's MY21 base and MY24 4S. I had over 5 years and 50k miles in them. I could not handle the software any longer. Simple things like LTE connectivity, Carplay not connecting, service issues and endless recalls took their toll on me. If you look at my posts in the Taycan forum, you will see I loved the car's design and the drive. I do hope the 718 EV will be better, but I doubt they can resolve the software issues in the time frame that they have to bring the vehicle to market.

I suggest you schedule a test drive in the brand new cayenne EV; to see the latest in software porsche offers.

I think you would be pleasantly surprised. I for sure was, and would put it on par with tesla/chinese evs in terms of usability. There are however no features such as farting seats

And if we assume things are only gonna get better, then all the more reasons to be happy.

Of course, the matter of porsche’s “we don’t update older cars with nee feature” mentality is still and issue / question mark.

And if FSD is mandatory, i dont think porache will ever bring a similar system to market, as it goes against the porsche mentality of driving cars, not being driven by cars

Forget fsd. Farting seats are mandatory.

Carplay issues are a constant everywhere. I have issues in my Lotus Emira and in my Porsche Macan EV, whereas it's never worked in my Tesla Model S (it doesn't support it).

There are pros and cons between our experiences. For example, Porsche is very conservative wrt. estimated remaining range whereas Tesla is wildly optimistic, to the point of blatantly lying.
